The Pat Mac’s Pack, a charity that supports pediatric brain tumor research, was created to honor McNamara, who died at 13 years old from a pediatric brain tumor. Flood recalled McNamara, who was her brother’s best friend, being excited when the foundation partnered with St. Baldrick’s Foundation to hold an event to raise money for childhood cancer research.
“I really wanted to do it this year. I’m training for a weeklong bike ride anyway, so this is good practice,” Flood said. “I love to get involved.”
